At 32 years old, Nemanja Bjelica is the oldest player on the Sacramento Kings by a year. While that’s not especially old for an NBA player, it’s old for a Kings team that’s looking to re-tool its roster around De’Aaron Fox, who signed a five-year, $163 million extension at the age off 22 in November.
It should come as no surprise, then, that the Kings worked to move Bjelica around the same time. According to a report from Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee, the Kings “explored” trades for Bjelica leading up to the 2020 NBA Draft, and they’re expected to re-visit those trade talks before the trade deadline on March 25.
